The MAGA MVP took her loyalty to new heights on Tuesday evening, when she shared an X post declaring, "The only candidate for Speaker I am currently supporting is President Donald J. Trump."

"He will end the war in Ukraine. He will secure the border," she continued. "He will end the politically weaponized government. He will make America energy independent again. He will pass my bill to stop transgender surgeries on kids and keep men out of women's sports. He will support our military and police. And so much more!"

"We can make him Speaker and then elect him President!" she added. "He will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!"

Earlier that day, McCarthy was axed from his role as speaker in a ruthless overthrow by far-right Republican lawmakers furious over his cooperation with Democrats on the recently passed government funding bill.

While MTG was a vocal ally who helped McCarthy get elected and voted to keep him in the position, her allegiance to Trump is far stronger, as she hopes he will pick her as his vice presidential candidate.

Though Trump is running for president and currently faces 91 criminal charges, there is no rule that would bar him from being elected.
